Family therapy, or family counseling, is a form of psychotherapy that entails working with family members or domestic members to address and resolve conflicts, enhance communication, and strengthen relationships. Family therapy focuses primarily on the dynamics and interactions within the family system, as opposed to the individual members. Family therapy is only effective if all family members are willing to participate and collaborate toward positive change actively. Family therapy can be beneficial for a variety of issues, such as communication issues, conflicts, behavioral difficulties, and adjusting to life transitions.

Most family therapists inadvertently create more chaos through their well-intentioned efforts to assist a family move through a change process. Why? Brains are inherently deregulated (all of us, may I add) and most talking and dialoguing misses brain-centric problems that need more intensive help. Many times the emotional trauma created by years of solving problems ineffectively can wreak havoc on the brain's parasympathetic nervous system, not ever giving the family a break from flight or fight thinking.

Family systems therapy draws on systems thinking in its view of the family as an emotional unit. When systems thinking—which evaluates the parts of a system in relation to the whole—is applied to families, it suggests behavior is both often informed by and inseparable from the functioning of one’s family of origin. Families experiencing conflict within the unit and seeking professional assistance to address it may find family systems therapy a helpful approach.

Each family has a history of the rules that govern interaction within a family. These rules may be known to at least some degree but may not be spoken about. Rules include what are the consequences that occur if those rules are broken. Rules are often passed down from one generation to the next and conflict can occur when two people come together in forming their own family. A conflict can also occur in a blended family because of remarriage or the formation of new family unit. Therapy involves understanding how those rules came about and then addressing how those rules work or do not work within the current family unit and making decisions about how to better interact together.
